We protect society and secure revenue for the state

Earlier this month a global operation targeting the criminal networks behind the sale of fake medicines via illicit online pharmacies resulted in the launch of over 40 investigations in Iceland. The Directorate of Customs and the Icelandic Medicines Agency jointly took part in the operation with support from the National Commissioner of the Icelandic Police and Iceland’s liaison office at Europol.

The main offices will be closed on Friday because Icelanders are celebrating 100 years of women’s right to vote. The Icelandic government urges employers to give its staff the day off from noon on Friday June 19 2015.
